Christopher Nolan’s Batman movie The Dark Knight is famed for containing the penultimate, and chilling, performance by the late Heath Ledger, who played the superhero’s twisted nemesis, Joker. Ledger, who died from an accidental overdose, was not the only person involved in the film to have died. Special effects technician Conway Wickliffe was killed when his car crashed while planning a stunt for the Batmobile.

Panic was also caused during filming at Battersea Power Station, London when a 200ft fireball prompted a number of calls from locals fearing a terrorist attack.
